Thats the huge part of what we do...either it be the right place to go look or the right person at the scales to working with people in companies to get there scrap.

Networking is a huge part...and I love it.

Yeah, I agree. I treat all of my customers (residential and commercial) like they are the only ones that I have. It has paid off well, as they help me to grow bigger by always referring me to other people, as well as by being repeat customers as well.

I especially love contractors who get contracted to do a store cleanout. First one I ever did, brought me in close to $650.
